Forensic professionals are strongly advised to follow federal/state and professional advisories and recommendations considering the elevated risk posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as preparing for possible resurgences and outbreaks by variants and other pathogens. For evaluations in the examiner’s office, certain minimum standards may apply such as the need for pre-visit health assessments by telephone, temperature checks prior to being seen, ensuring physical distancing, wearing masks, use of hand sanitizers, regular cleaning of surface in the examination area, sharing disease-related information with the assessee as part of the forensic orientation, and controlling for interference such as from significant others or security personnel accompanying the person to be evaluated. Evolving standards may include the requirement to add barriers such as plexiglass between staff and interviewees and audio/video taping of procedures. For the necessary health and safety of all involved, telehealth technologies have begun to have some application in forensic work but involve a whole new set of procedures and ethical considerations.
